Method and apparatus for configuring penetration mode in wireless communication system

A method performed by a transmitter in a wireless local area network (WLAN) is provided. The method comprises: for a basic service set (BSS) established by an access point (AP), setting a second parameter in a second frame based on a first penetration mode indicated by a first parameter in a first frame; and transmitting a second frame to the receiver, in which the first penetration mode is one of a plurality of penetration modes predetermined for a third parameter in a third frame. 本申请提供了一种在无线局域网(WLAN)中由发射器执行的方法。所述方法包括：对于由接入点(AP)建立的基本服务集(BSS)，基于由第一帧中的第一参数指示的第一穿透模式，设置第二帧中的第二参数；以及向接收器发送第二帧，其中，所述第一穿透模式是为第三帧中的第三参数预先确定的多个穿透模式之一。
